First Post of the Post-ish Covid World
I wrote a book that my agent, other agents, and every publisher I contacted hated. I don't blame them, it's an angry book, but I thought, what the hey, it's done, might as well offer it. Not only has it never been edited, no one has even read a draft, so this is pretty stupid because people see what I produce without help ( Read more... ) -
Resenting the Hero Screenplay
Really long time no post. Mostly I post on Facebook and twitter nowadays. But today I thought of the screenplay I wrote years ago, based on Resenting the Hero ( Read more... ) -

Writing
The first draft of my detective/urban fantasy was written over the course of about two years, interrupted by a lot of other projects and events. The plot takes place over the course of two weeks, each day is covered. I kept an outline of the story, of course, but because a day can run over several chapters, what happened five chapters earlier can ( Read more... ) -
Trinity Western University Update Triumph!
I am delighted and relieved that the Supreme Court of Canada has decided that provincial law societies can’t be forced to accredit a law school that will practice discrimination against those of the LGBTQ community. It was a long time coming. Not just that this whole thing started in 2012, but that the court heard the case on Nov.30 and Dec.1 2017 ( Read more... ) -
Writing
I've finally finished the first draft of my detective/urban fantasy thing, as finished as I can be with that one massive scene left out. As I've mentioned, I can't fill that scene in until I go to Ottawa in August, but there's plenty to do before then, like research police procedure, coroners, and the Crown Attorney office. There are also a lot of ( Read more... ) -

Writing convention
This weekend was fantastic. I live in a nice city that I love, but there isn't a lot of resources for a geek, so the annual genre book expo is one of my favourite events of the year. It's great to be around people who love the kind of books I do, or at least aren't all caught up in the kind of books I can't stand. (Literature ( Read more... ) -
Writing
Yesterday, I finally finished the chapter immediately before the chapter/s that will be the climactic scene in the book, and there were honestly times where I didn't think I'd make it. I've never been one to believe in the idea of forcing yourself to write when you don't want to. (But then, I can't live off my royalties, so who knows.) I was afraid ( Read more... )
